So? Barely served a purpose.
>>using magic weakens you, basically making every character a mystic knight. it seriously hampers strategy variety
You’re autistic. Dropping a stat by a couple points doesn’t “seriously hamper strategy variety”
>>even if you force yourself to use magic, it's ridiculously underpowered even with 255 mag stat
So?
>>when a gimmick boss appears, the game basically tells you how to beat it, therefore ruining any chance of making a single fight challenging
Pro tip: all bosses and enemies are defeated by reducing its HP to 0.
>>on-demand limits will never be a good idea
They’re not on demand. They’re activated at low HP and the risk reward is a strong attack at the expense of likely being knocked out.
>>level scaling will never be a good idea
Actually it is.
>>junctioning makes every character the same. Since you don't have limit on how much magic you can have, there are no gated roles like some other versatile FFs (6,7,10) have for most of the time
Lmao retard FF7 is the definition of “every character is the same.” Materia can be equipped to anyone just like junctioning.

Pretty much everything you said is wrong. Magic use had a much better place in FF8 than other games imo because only certain kinds of magic were strong at certain times, on the other hand in a game like 7 you get away with spamming the same skills over and over like Aqualung 95% of the time, which you get super early, can have on every chara, and totally trivializes the game too. No FF game has difficult combat, hate to break it to you. In 8 though you basically need Triple to make Magic really strong, but it's not like you a GF that gives you free Triple on every chara...right?

Also I really enjoyed manipulating Rinoa's magic pool so she only uses Meteor with max stats in her 2nd limit break. I would set her up to auto hasted and she'd basically kill any boss by herself without any input from me after using Angel Wing. It was really satisfying having her unleash a nuclear holocaust every second while I can relax with my other character inputs, not sure why.

No. Nobody does. Nobody exists for any reason other than to tell Squall how much he an Rinoa belong together. There's no character who has to overcome here fear of fire and the pain of losing her home, nobody's anybody's long lost sister, there's no former general with a struggling sense of loyalty, there's no rebel leader who has to make peace with the fact that he only ever lead people to their deaths out of his own spite, there's no one who contemplates the meaning of mortality and there's no one who has to get past their own prejudice when he finds out his whole life has been a lie. They're all just the MC's cheer leaders.

Absolute cringe character, managed to roll a zero on seducing Squall despite having power, looks, and status. Gets demoted because she nearly ruins a mission stacked with all-star combatants like Seifer/Squall because her teaching and discipline are just so ineffective that they nearly implode. Nearly pisses away an entire assassination attempt because she was worried about hurting a rich girl’s feelings. Later deludes herself into thinking her base instinct to fuck Squall is “sisterly love.” Proceeds to do nothing the rest of the game.

I'll agree with this, but mostly just because it obviously made you play the game very poorly and fuck up your experience.
>using magic weakens you
Not... really. Not all your magic is going to be junctioned. Until the mid to late game when you have all the GFs you're probably only junctioned in 4 or 5 slots per character. Even if you do use a spell you junctioned it doesn't matter. Oh shock horror, I lost 75 max HP or 6% Earth Absorb because I Triple Quaked, that sure wasn't worth the 7k damage I did.
>even if you force yourself to use magic, it's ridiculously underpowered even with 255 mag stat
Maybe if you've been grinding and actually hit the level scaling, but just don't do that instead. There's a really easy source of Triple really early and the moment you have Diablo you can get capped on Quake which, outside of certain fights will get you through basically all the way to disc 3.
